Remember Richard
Nixon? Richard who? You know, the guy they tried to rehabilitate after he fled
the White House behind his felonious VP and just ahead of the prosecutors, the guy they built a museum
about with fake exhibits showing how he really was a great man who was
victimized by the Liberal Press?
Well as long as we
have Dick Nixon's words on tape we don't have to kick him around any
more, since his unique talent for kicking himself in the ass with both
feet in his mouth relieves us of the burden.
Watching
All in the Family and completely failing to get what it was about, all
the trickster could get out of it is that it "glorified homosexuality"
made a hippie out to be a better man than a "hard-hat" and was likely to
destroy America. CNN plans to air this clip and more Nixon outrages
tonight. I don't plan to watch it. I don't need to listen to this
shitweasel, this piece of snake dung talking about how Rome and Greece
were destroyed by "fags." I had enough many years ago when I heard him
talking to Billy Graham about how the Jews were destroying America.
I've had far more than enough of the party that supported him for
decades, that attacked truth and justice to protect this horror,
committed crimes to re-elect him and who now thinks he's way too far to the left for the modern tea-stained Republicans.
Watch this
(my apologies for the ad) and ask yourself how this piece of human
garbage ever got elected, how anyone would debase themselves and their
country by supporting him in full knowledge of his words and deeds. Ask
yourself how low a person has to be to be a Republican. Listen to his
words America, and despair.
The man loved his dog CHeckers. But it is weird how our best people (now that I'm a republican I say "our) get hosed by the base while assholes like Tricky Dick and idiots like Reagan are deified.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember one of my fellow republicans since I became a republican talk about Teddy Roosevelt or IKE when asked who the great republicans were. It always begins and ends with Reagan.
They seem to portray Teddy as a Communist these days. The new definition of Communism being support of a graduated income tax and interfering with making Yosemite and the Grand Canyon toxic waste dumps like Mammon demands.
DeleteOf course they seem to portray everybody from Adam Smith to Barry Obama as a communist these days.
When Nixon abdicated his throne I was in Europe in a communist country, cut off from any real news. The reports on TV there told about the break in and the president's resignation but then went on to say there were riots in the streets and America was in a melt down. Once I got to Germany I met up with a GI and asked him what was going on back home and he said, "I don't know, I was going to ask you!"
ReplyDeleteToday we would have googled or twittered and had instant answers, probably at least 10 conflicting ones, but we would have had answers.
Riots in the streets? More like a party.
DeleteI used to be proud that we didn't have to depend on a state run media for our information, but now, of course, our corporate media in our corporate run state gives us something similar.
And then, there came Barry Goldwater. Who might have been (Ford. and Reagan excluded) the last authentic honest republican.
ReplyDeleteI guess he was honest. I respect him for some of his views - antipathy to the Christian right for one, and I'm sure he wasn't a bigot of any kind, but his antipathy toward labor unions, civil rights legislation and moderation itself turned my stomach and certainly his suggestion that we ought to use more nukes to fight Communism and that the pentagon shouldn't have to ask the president for permission to do so rightly prompted the slogan "in your heart, you know he's nuts."
